In a coastal city in Florida threatened by an imminent hurricane, residents prepare for a mandatory evacuation. While residents boarded up their homes, some vagrants decided to stay.
The meditative journey of the soul also involves knowing how to look. Not only to what surrounds us, but also to the heartbeat of our own body. It is in this context that Alexandra Simpson’s proposal and her commitment to allow tenderness to exist in the midst of chaos bursts forth with a firm step. Halfway between the real and the fictional, Simpson embraces a narrative that intersects at certain moments with Chantal Akerman’s fascinating Toute une nuit.
Alexandra Simpson’s first feature film is quite an event and opens an exciting path for the future of cinema. Don’t miss the debut of this unique and captivating filmmaker.
